Yes, define 'soul'. Every time I get in my 1/2T PU it feels right. That's enough for me. When I get in the Boxster I'm cramped and even though I can snick through the gears up and down with the passenger only noticing the engine note and no jerk, it has nothing for me. It rides on rails in the twisties, so much so and yet it has nothing for me.
And when I get in the '44 Jeep with the SBC, only the motor has soul being cammed up. The rest of the thing is junk.
